Question Adding a subwoofer to the Bose system.....help!!

Hi,
Like some of you, I find the stock bose system to be lacking in bass. Because of the fibre-optic connections, I think it's too much pain in the *** to improve the overall quality of the system. However, I do wish to add a sub to my car. Here are some of questions:
1. For those who've already installed their subs, where did you guys put them? I noticed that the spare tire area (C32= no spare) is a good place to put a sub in. Any input on this??

2. I only want a marginal increase in bass. I don't want to blow up my ear and my entire car. So I think a little 8 or 10in sub would be fine. Any suggestions of which brand and model to pick from?

3. I noticed that in DS's post down there, he disconnected the original bose subwoofer. I was wondering if it's impossible for me to add the extra sub while still maintain the original sub at the same time? So that I can have two subs.....

4. Anybody in Toronto who knows a good place to do this work??


Thanks All!!
